Resolves an issue that might occur with the package "Enhanced Write Filter with HORM".

• KB2573437 fixes the following issue:
  
  The "DefragSv" service is incorrectly configured as “SERVICE_DEMAND_START” under certain circumstances. Specifically, when the “Enhanced Write Filter with HORM” package is added to an image with one or more protected volumes that are configured with default settings for “DisableDefragSvc”, the runtime should be configured to disable Auto Defragmentation service (DefragSvc), by setting the “DefragSvc” service to “SERVICE_DISABLED”.
